The scattering of an electromagnetic plane wave from Young pinholes upon a quasi-homogeneous (QH) anisotropic medium is studied within the accuracy of the first-order Born approximation. By assuming that the diffractive wave from pinholes…
We examine the convergence properties of the 2-nucleon Effective Range Expansion as used in Effective Theories (ET-ERE's) for 3-nucleon calculations. We accomplish this by accounting for the 2-body dynamics with a simple rank-1 separable…
In the presence of extended defects, familiar incoming particles can scatter into exotic outgoing states created by twist operators. We show that one possible mechanism driving these "categorical scattering" processes is the presence of…
